Last known photo of the aircraft if I can get on for my files

Greeting All, My friend Kevin McAdams mentioned the subject aircraft in an email to me, the other day, and I was surprised that I didn't have a photo of this aircraft in my collection, or any information on her. Anyone have a photo and any details. The Registration Number still appears in the FAA Re...

That would suck.....Glad you still had time. I know what you mean, I have stuff I keep "discovering", and I am 50 with 5 years of experiance!!

Such a piece of history that could be saved, just left to rot.

Thanks for posting the photos Steve and the story.

Amen Dan, Amen...

Bill, An old-timer that served in the 8th AF who lives near me, said that the interior of his F model was NMF.
